Ah. Another flat-earther.

Depending on altitude, from horizon to horizon can be no more than a dozen miles at sea level yet for the RA/Dec people it represents their flat Earth interpretations.

On Earth day, the Equatorial speed of the Earth is 1037.5 miles per hour therefore, by logic and reason, the Earth turns its full 360 degree circumference in 24 hours.
